Chapter 398 The Water Is Deep

“See no evil, see no evil!”

The village girl looked at the embarrassed scholar in front of her, and the smile on her face became even bigger. "You scholar, you are really interesting, why don't you come with me to the village to take shelter from the rain?"

"Village? How far away?"

"It's less than five hundred steps, so just follow me.

After saying that, the village girl seemed to have accidentally pulled the skirt of her clothes that was slightly too small, causing a turbulent wave.

"Okay, very good." Lin Chen nodded thoughtfully.

By lightning.

He vaguely saw a gray and black rat tail growing on the village girl's perky buttocks.

"monster?"

Lin Chen pretended not to see it and just followed the village girl on horseback.

Just like what this village girl said.

The village in front of us is in the corner of this lonely forest, and it looks like there are about ten families.

"Uncle, second uncle, third uncle and fourth uncle! Look, I brought a scholar back!"

As soon as the village girl entered the village, she started shouting impatiently.

Along with the sound, a dozen gray and black figures were seen running out.

Oops!

What a big rat!

Approximately the body of an adult, but with the head of a mouse!

Look at the village girl who just led the way. She doesn’t look like a village girl at all. She is also a rat-headed monster with sinister features and rat-like eyes!

The leading mouse let out a weird laugh, as if it was looking at the human scholar's demented appearance after being frightened.

Never thought about it.

He saw the man on horseback staring at him with a half-smile, then he turned his wrist and took out a long sword!

But the rat-headed monster, who looked the oldest, twitched his nose, and then shouted: "It's bad, this is not a scholar, but a military attache who has been on the battlefield and killed people. I'm going to leave quickly!"

Lin Chen became interested after hearing this.

Uh-huh!

The Heavenly Sword is unsheathed.

After this sword was drawn out by Lin Chen, he followed him on the battlefield.

No less than a thousand soldiers were killed by him.

From a certain perspective, this sword can already be regarded as a dangerous weapon.

only.

After leading him to his lair, how could he possibly escape?

The Zhiyang Qi of the Pure Yang Dao Jue adheres to the edge of the sword, making it look hot and compelling.

Lin Chen, who was extremely fast, raised his sword and came out.

The village girl Mouse, who was completely unresponsive, flew into the air with her big head.

Phew!

Smelly black blood spurted out from his neck.

Lin Chen felt the resistance he had just met with the beheading, and made a mental assessment of the strength of these rat spirits.

Approximately what it looks like in the early stages of innateness.

The rat spirit headed by him should be stronger.

but.

With Lin Chen's current level of cultivation, it would be easy to deal with these rat spirits!

The mouse's eyes suddenly turned red when he saw his companion being killed.

"Human, if you die, we will tear your bones apart and eat your flesh!"

"Ah."

Lin Chen made a noncommittal laugh.

It turns out.

When you are extremely angry, you can only be extremely angry.

Even if a crowd gathered together, these rat spirits would be instantly defeated by Lin Chen's sword.

Two were disemboweled, three were gutted, and the rest tried to run away, but Lin Chen chased them and stabbed them to death.

The strong smell of blood echoed.

Lin Chen gathered his true energy, shook away the blood on the sword's edge, and then walked into these houses to take a look.

"Pooh!"

Soon he came out.

Inside these rooms, all the hangings are pale and raw meat.

From the looks of it, it was probably human flesh.

There was no shortage of rotting and stinking limbs that the rats had stewed in pots.

"It seems that Uncle Wang and others did not die at the hands of this group of rats."

otherwise.

He should have found the bodies of Uncle Wang and others in the pot.

"The water in this world is a bit deep."

Lin Chen looked at the mouse corpse on the ground and fell into some kind of contemplation.

Even roadside monsters have such tyrannical strength.

If you call other innate warriors to come in, there is a high probability that they will not be able to escape the siege.

In the end, there is a high probability that it will become food in the belly of rats.

No wonder Feng Qingyang said it.

Not even one out of ten innate masters has ever entered this paradise of immortality.

An innate master is really nothing here.

When we get out of this rat village, there will be any heavy rain, it is obviously a deception.

Lin Chen, who was walking out of this lonely forest, couldn't help but look down at a stone tablet half dumped in the soil.

There are three big words in the letter: Locust trees are in chaos!

"Chaotic locust forest?"

Lin Chen muttered these three words and suddenly felt a chill behind his back.

Turning his head and looking around, he saw a ferocious face appearing on the trunk of a locust tree in the forest.

But right away.

Lin Chen felt a warm current coming from his arms, driving away all the chill.

Um?

He fumbled and took out an official seal with five words written on it: Magistrate of Beiguo County.

Lin Chen, who was holding the official seal, looked at the forest and saw no faces.

"Hmph, when I take office, I will mobilize the county police officers to burn down your forest!" Lin Chen deliberately raised his voice and said coldly.

The chaotic locust forest reacted immediately. It felt like a strange wind was blowing by, and the branches of the trees were swaying wildly, as if they were about to rise from the ground in the next second.

Upon seeing this, Lin Chen knew that the thing in the forest had some bad habits, so he immediately took the lead.

"Hoo~"

Lin Chen, who rode his horse back onto the official road, breathed a sigh of relief.

"Is this world a place where evil spirits and humans coexist?"

Lin Chen thought to himself, full of doubts and curiosity about the situation in this immortal paradise.

Unfortunately, there are still too few clues at present, and he can't deduce the reason.

However, the rat spirit didn't lie to him.

There is indeed only five miles between Luanhuai Forest and Beiguo County.

Lin Chen rode his horse to the outside of Beiguo County and looked at his official residence.

There is an earthen wall about four to five meters high, and at the city gate are seven or eight listless soldiers patrolling the people coming in and out.

After seeing Lin Chen's figure, these soldiers became energetic.

Compared to ordinary people, this guy dressed as a scholar is obviously more like a fat sheep!

"The entrance fee is twenty copper coins!"

Lin Chen looked at the soldiers in front of him and sneered.

"Do you recognize what's written on this?"

This soldier really knew how to read. When he read out the five words "Beiguo County Magistrate" on the official seal, his face instantly turned pale.

Good guy.

The blackmail fell on the newly arrived boss!

"County magistrate, please calm down, magistrate!"

The soldier knelt down and started wailing, not forgetting to slap his face, "Young man, you are fooled by lard!"

Lin Chen just glanced at him and asked, "Do I need to pay the entry fee to enter the city?"

The soldiers looked at each other in disbelief and lowered their heads.

This Beiguo County is really not a good place as I remember it.

I saw that the streets in Beiguo County were desolate, and they were all occupied by homeless beggars.

There are only a few shops open for business, most of which are grain stores and cloth merchants.

It can be seen that Beiguo County is in serious decline.

certainly.

An issue that Lin Chen was more concerned about.

That's where his new wife came from.

However.

At this moment, a group of officers hurried towards the county government office.

"Hey! I'm telling you, the new county magistrate's wife captured a group of criminal thieves!" a passerby on the roadside yelled.

Lin Chen:?

…
